SpaceX’s Crew-10 launched into space Friday to bring home two NASA astronauts who have been stuck at the International Space Station (ISS) since June 6. The crew of four geared up in the “suit-up room” amid photos of the Apollo crew, before driving to the launchpad in multiple Teslas adorned with “LIF10FF” license plates — an ode to the mission number. Each astronaut received a medical check before being briefed by SpaceX and NASA. Later, they partook in various traditions, including a card game to eliminate any bad luck. SPACEX MAKES HISTORY WITH SUCCESSFUL TEST OF ‘MECHAZILLA ARMS’ The launch…
Bitcoin has built-in scarcity, and a definitive “full stop” by design. There will only ever be 21 million Bitcoin, and roughly 19.6 million have already been mined. It is expected to take until 2140 to generate those last 1.4 million Bitcoin, because Bitcoin production slows down over time. This is part of a system designed to generate scarcity and increase Bitcoin’s value. The slow-down is managed through a process called Bitcoin halving. It’s one of the key ways Bitcoin is unlike a traditional fiat currency, and is more of an investor’s asset than anything else.
Delta Air Lines is partnering with aerospace startup JetZero on its development of a sustainable blended-wing-body aircraft. The blended-wing-body design of the planned JetZero plane is expected to make it “up to 50% more fuel efficient than conventional tube-and-wing airframes on the market,” the carrier said. Delta intends to lend its operational expertise to JetZero, now a member of the carrier’s Sustainable Skies Lab, as the California-based startup develops the jet. Through the partnership, JetZero will have access to the “right maintenance and operational footprints to prove out and accelerate the commercialization” of the blended-wing-body aircraft, according to Delta. DELTA…

Bitcoin has crashed by 25 per cent from its all-time high of almost $110,000 per coin, growing fears around the currency.

A computer expert who stole Bitcoin now worth billions of dollars has been sentenced to five years in prison. Ilya Lichtenstein masterminded one of the largest-ever thefts from a virtual currency exchange before he and his wife, Heather Rhiannon Morgan, carried out an elaborate scheme to liquidate the stolen funds, according to federal prosecutors. “He became one of the greatest money launderers that the government has encountered in the cryptocurrency space,” prosecutors wrote. In August 2016, Lichtenstein hacked into a virtual currency exchange, Hong Kong-based Bitfinex, and stole approximately 120,000 bitcoins, reports the Associated Press.
President Donald Trump boasted that the U.S. is experiencing a “manufacturing boom” following the release of the first full jobs report of his second term. The Labor Department on Friday reported that employers added 151,000 jobs in February, below the estimate of 160,000 jobs made by LSEG economists. However, manufacturing added 10,000 jobs in February, above LSEG economists’ estimate of a 5,000 gain. “During the last year the Biden administration saw a loss of more than 110,000 manufacturing jobs or 9,000 manufacturing jobs every single month. During the first full month in office, we’ve not only stopped that manufacturing collapse,…
